Hi guys Im after some help on finding out where I can purchase XR6 Body kits from. Im only after the skirts, rear bar and wing. I've looked through the net but I keep coming up with nothing.

If anyone has any quotes or numbers I can call you would be a great help!

cheers, Nathan

i just got a full EL XR kit from AWC. very happy with the results. was good qaulity stuff. alot of aftermarket kits arent finished too well and have sort like pin pricks all over them and stuff, but the ones i got form awc didnt need much prep work. were pretty much ready for painting.

I can do those bits (members' price) for $787.50. That's with the EL XR8 wing.
Unlike awc, I financially assist with the running costs of this group.
Cheers, Bob

Price quoted is supply only. All parts should be test fitted before painting. Therefore, it's risky pre-painting stuff, not to mention the chance of paintwork being scufed in transit. Anyway, there's really no advantage in getting stuff pre-painted.
Cheers, Bob

how close are these kits from the genuine item.
what i mean is, can you tell the difference between aftermarket and genuine.

Not unless you're fitting one. The materials they're made out of are different, fibreglass is harder to prep than plastic. The kits look identical when painted though.
